Forums - Gaming - What I dont like about this generation of consoles

 

Xbox 360

 

1) I dont like the name! They should have given it a more straightforward name, not a "number monkey". People already started to speculate xbox 720, 1080 and so on!

2) I dont like the brick adaptor, Its huge! What's it, a joke?

3) I dont like the failure rate! I like Xbox 360, as a machine, its production quality should have been much higher from the very beginning.

4) I dont like the number of first party exclusives, it's not enough.

5) I dont like the fact that 360 hard drives are so overpriced.

6) I dont like the fact that Arcade version does not come with a HD.

7) I dont like online charging policy. I reason with the non-free online but it should be cheaper.

8) I dont like the noise level of the console!

 

PS3

1) I dont like the fact that It's been released so late.

2) I dont like the premium price, too expensive.

3) I dont like the size of the console, it's huge!

4) I dont like the quality of the third party multiplatform games and framerate issues.

5) I dont like the fact that developing for ps3 is freaking difficult and time consuming.

6) I dont like the fact that Sony always overpromises and underdelivers.

 

Wii

1) I dont like the fact that it's so underpowered.

2) I dont like the fact that the controller could be very annoying.

3) I dont like Most Nintendo games, and the shovelware overbrimming the console library.

4) I dont like the fact it doesnt have any HDD.

5) I dont like the fact that many third party games are not even on par with xbox 1.

6) I dont like the game library on virtual console.

7) I dont like the fact that Wii is dominating this generation and killing the industry.

 

The lists could be extended...

Do you own any of these consoles? Or are you basing this off your general opinion on how "teh internetz" describes them?

point 5 for ps3... you're a developer? cool!!!



then stop gaming.



Of course I am not a developer and I see your point, but it has correlation with the problems regarding why games come so late, far in between and having problems.

 

Stop gaming? No, I only included the bad points, they all have a lot of good points as well. Let's be open minded for criticism!

Some of these seem more like nit picks, I can understand the complaints that involve costs and lack in effort from the developers, but stuff like "it's to noisy!" or "it's to big!" are problems that you can easily fix yourself

And complaining about the name is just...well...



all valid points. Wouldn't say the wii is ruining the industry, but they are giving developers the idea that they can make a shitty shovelware game and have it sell a half a million or more on the wii.

If only good games sold well, we'd only see good games.
